Fundamentals of Biology: Lecture Outline - Chapter 5

Cell Membranes

FLUID MOSAIC MODEL:

- cell membranes composed mostly of

- phospholipid molecules have

hydrophilic heads +

- Lipid bilayer = hydrophobic barrier

- Proteins embedded in bilayer

What exactly do we mean by "Fluid-Mosaic"?

FLUID?

 

MOSAIC?

 

Membrane Proteins:

Adhesion proteins

 

Communication proteins

 

Receptor proteins

 

Recognition proteins

 

Transporter proteins

 

Channel

Carrier

 

 

 

 

Selective Permeability

Diffusion:

 

Rate + direction of diffusion are affected by:

 

1.

2.

3.

4.

5.

 

When gradients no longer exist =___________________ _________________

 

Crossing Mechanisms:

Transporters

PASSIVE Transport

- flow from high to low

- binding site on membrane

 

 

ACTIVE Transport

- "pumps"

- move solutes against concentration gradients

- requires

 

 

Osmosis

- diffusion

- of water

- across

 

Tonicity:

 

 

Hypotonic

 

Hypertonic

 

Isotonic

 

Hydrostatic pressure

Osmotic pressure

 

Exocytosis

 

Endocytosis - 3 ways

1. Receptor-mediated

2. Bulk phase

3. Phagocytosis
